Belus, riding in the carriage, tilted his head slightly and looked out the window.
‘Seems like he’s making a fuss to see Grandfather.’
The financial condition of the Powell family, the lineage of John, is a well-known fact, but the Forests boast a relatively solid financial power.
‘Is there a problem, or is he just impatient?’
Delta Marquis. What a magnificent family. Everyone opens their mouths to receive the dust falling from this family. As long as they do, they can easily have enough to eat.
‘But I don’t want to give.’
Although Belus was born into the Delta and enjoyed many privileges, at the same time, he could not become ‘Delta’ until the end.
‘I’m the second son who can’t inherit Delta’s business.’
That’s why Eric explained the situation to Belus and didn’t ask for a favor. After all, he was just a rope tied to the Delta Marquis.
“Haha.”
Smiling as he looked out the window, Belus soon regained his composure.
‘Disgusting.’
While looking out the window so carelessly, the scenery didn’t seem to change. Is it when the road is blocked? Belus swallowed his dissatisfaction and carefully examined the scenery outside. Near the train station. Yeah, it’s inevitable for it to be blocked here.
‘Oh.’
Then there was something that caught Belus’s eye.
‘A car.’
And in front of it, a tall man talking to a man appeared. A coat that fit his wide shoulders perfectly, rare perfect blond hair, elegant eyes and a straight nose, a handsome man with smooth lips.
“No way.”
To just let it go like that, in the crowded central train station where people are bustling, Belus doubted if such a blond handsome man could exist again in the world.
Belus quickly stopped the carriage and got off. It wasn’t far, so there was no need to run.
“Mr. Baker?”
In response to Belus’s voice, the face that had subtly turned while chatting turned naturally towards him. Belus was convinced by that beautiful appearance.
Ah, he’s really that interesting guy.
Seated inside a luxurious bar, Belus smiled and said.
“I suddenly struck up a conversation, and I’m very grateful for giving me your time like this.”
“How could I not?”
Jen laughed with his eyes closed. Belus liked that stiff smile.
“To be honest, I never knew we would meet on the street. I heard from Mr. John Powell that you are in Astryan.”
“That’s right. I was in Astryan until recently. By the way, did John talk about me?”
“Yes. He introduced the social club you belong to and told me a little about Mr. Delta. After all, you are the founder of the Chelsea Club.”
For John, boasting about being a member of the Chelsea Club to someone he just met was as natural as breathing. Belus, who nodded without much interest, asked with a beautiful smile.
“Then, did you already know me before hearing that story?”
“Of course. No matter where you’re from, the Delta Marquis’s presence is unmistakable.”
“Hmm. By the way, did you say you were from Astryan?”
“Yes. I’m from the southeast.”
“The southeast! Nice. It’s a place where warm and juicy grapes open abundantly.”
“Were you in the southeast this time?”
Belus answered, tilting his head.
“No, I was in the northwest. I have a villa there. But I’ve spent time in the southeast. If I had stayed until winter, I might have moved to the southeast…”
“I see. I hope we can meet sometime later.”
“Huh? Is this just a greeting?”
“Of course not. It’s a sincere wish.”
Belus replied with a bright smile. Again, with the name ‘Delta,’ various insects were sure to be entangled. But the tangled bug now seemed to be quite pleasing.
‘Interesting.’
Although he served Belus politely, his attitude was not servile. If you threw in another word, a plausible answer flowed smoothly, and that was also answered in perfect Gracian pronunciation.
“Are you really from Astryan?”
When Belus asked in Astryan, Jen, who quietly laughed, replied in Astryan.
“I hear that a lot.”
It was a short sentence, but it wasn’t a tone where foreigners awkwardly rolled their tongues.
“It seems that I often get such misunderstandings because my blood is Gracian.”
“Hmm? No. It’s not because of your appearance…”
Come to think of it, blond hair is extremely rare in Astryan. Most people in that country have brown hair, and a few have red hair.
‘Blond hair like this is quite rare even in Gracia, but in Astryan, it’s hair you can’t see.’
Holding a glass, Belus sipped and said.
“Anyway, I wanted to meet you. Everyone around me talks about you.”
Jen modestly smiled, thinking.
‘Yeah. That must be it.’
Belus probably thinks he caught an interesting prey. If he plays around and gets hungry, he might chew it and, if it tastes bad, spit it out. Such a foolish thought might be very satisfying with this prey.
‘Just as I thought.’
Until Belus spoke, the person who had been talking to Jen was Todd. After Belus revealed his identity, Todd naturally greeted Jen and left.
“I took up a lot of your time. Next time, then.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
